Answer:

Molecular formula = S₂O ₆

Explanation:

Given data:

Empirical formula = SO₃

Molecular formula = ?

Molecular mass = 152 g/mol

Solution:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

Empirical formula mass  = 80 g/mol

n = 152 g/mol / 80 g/mol

n = 2

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 2(SO₃)

Molecular formula = S₂O ₆

What is the molecular formula of the structure below?
taurus [48]

Answer:

C₆H₆

Explanation:

Each border of the figure represents 1 atom of carbon. We have 6 borders = 6 atoms of carbon.

Each atom of carbon form 4 bonds. All the carbons are doing a double bond and a single bond with other carbons. That means are bonded 3 times. The other bond (That is not represented in the figure. See the image) comes from hydrogens. As we have 6 carbons that are bonded each 1 with one hydrogen. There are six hydrogens and the molecular formula is:

<h3>C₆H₆</h3>

This structure is: Benzene

When atmospheric pressure decreases, the mercury height in a barometer
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Decreases

Explanation:

The atmospheric pressure on the surface of the mercury pushes it up the evacuated tube until the downward pressure of the mercury equals the atmospheric pressure.

If the atmospheric pressure decreases, the mercury doesn't have to rise as high.

The mercury height decreases.

What scientist said we cannot predict an exact position of<br> atoms.
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

The Heisenberg uncertainty principle states that the exact position and momentum of an electron cannot be simultaneously determined. Warner Heisenberg contributed to atomic theory through formulating quantum mechanics in terms of matrices and in discovering the uncertainty principle, which states that a particle's position and momentum cannot both be known exactly.
